Ghanaian President Nana Akufo-Addo has praised the national team’s “gutsy performance” in their World Cup opener against Portugal which ended in a 2-3 loss.
The Black Stars became the first African team to score a goal at this year’s tournament, but lie at the bottom of Group H. They will next play South Korea on November 28.
In a tweet, President Addo said he is proud of the entire team despite their loss to Portugal. He added that the Black Stars live to fight another day.
